An early Orvis CFO II fly reel in good used condition. Made in England by Hardys. Originally released in the early 1970's, this model followed the early "screwback" reels that was made in the first few years of production - likely manufactured middle to late 70’s. Fixed click & pawl drag that can be flipped to either RHW or LHW (currently set for LHW). Smooth alloy 3-hole foot, fully ventilated frame and spool with palming rim. The reel shows signs of modest use but is mechanically intact, with no spool wobble. Weight is 2.08oz, best with a 1/2/3wt line. Sold with non-original velvet pouch.
